Call it counter-programming.

Filling in for the Melissa George, the first film's heroine/survivor is Lost's Kiele Sanchez, who's joined by genre veteran Mia Kirshner and Sanchez's fellow Lostie Harold Perrineau. Last week we chatted with Niles from his home in La about what we can expect from 30 Days of Night: Dark Days. How did this come about in the wake of the first film? We thought the first 30... »

This past week Bloody Disgusting's Evan Katz headed up north to Vancouver to check out the set of Sony Stage 6's 30 Days Of Night: Dark Days, which is currently being directed by Ben Ketai. Beyond the break you'll find a little teaser from set, which reveals some brand new casting including Ginger Snaps star Katherine Isabelle! While Id already known about the casting of Kiele Sanchez, Mia Kirschner, Rhys Coiro, Diora Baird, Harold Perrineau, Troy Ruptash, Jackson Berlin, John De Santis, and Marco Sorian I was pleasantly surprised to find Katherine Isabelle of Ginger Snaps fame was has a role in the film. I cant give away too much, but her scene involved a skimpy blue nightgown, fifty degree weather, and a highly unorthodox vampiric initiation ritual. Really screwed up, intense stuff. More »

Reports in September that the "30 Days of Night" sequel would begin filming in October appear to have been corroborated yesterday as filming kicked off in Vancouver.
Director Ben Ketai's follow-up to the 2007 adaptation of Steve Niles' Idw comic (directed by "Twilight Saga: Eclipse" director David Slade) seems to be proceeding on schedule with actress Kiele Sanchez as Stella Oleson instead of Melissa George.
"Not something I've seen spread around anywhere else yet, but the sequel to '30 Days of Night,' 'Dark Days,' began shooting in Vancouver today," Idw publisher Chris Ryall posted on his Twitter account.
Sanchez will be joined on set by newcomers Mia Kirshner, Rhys Coiro and Harold Perrineau. Coiro and Perrineau will unite with her character to track down the vampire queen Lilith who was responsible for the destruction of her Alaskan town in the first film.

The official cast and synopsis for "30 Days of Night: Dark Days," the sequel to the 2007 adaptation of Steve Niles and Ben Templesmith's comic book, has been announced just days after an initial look at the movie's acting roster.
Most of the important casting notes—including the arrivals of Mia Kirshner ("The L Word"), Rhys Coiro ("Entourage") and Harold Perrineau ("Lost")—remain in place, though perhaps the biggest news is that Melissa George will not be reprising her role as Stella Oleson, despite Niles' own hopes.
Bloody Disgusting reports that Oleson will instead be played by Kiele Sanchez, perhaps best known as the castaway Nikki on the third season of "Lost."
While her character wasn't exactly a fan-favorite, Sanchez as an actress wasn't widely panned—viewers mostly took issue with Nikki's introduction into the series—so her status as the new "30 Days of Night" lead shouldn't be seen as an automatic downgrade from Melissa George. »

Moments after the report came in that actors Mia Kirshner, Diora Baird, Rhys Coiro, Harold Perrineau, and Monique Ganderton had joined the cast of 30 Days of Night: Dark Days (the follow-up to 2007's vamp thrill-ride 30 Days of Night), the series’ writer and producer Steve Niles called this scribe to confirm the news (we held off on running this until Sony signed off) and also to provide us details on the flick’s plot, shooting schedule, and more.
[Click here for the full casting breakdown, which came courtesy of Bloody Disgusting.]
“I actually co-wrote the sequel with Ben (Ketai),” said Niles, correcting the leak, “who’s also directing.”
